Rooted Bodywork & Lymphatics is a therapeutic massage practice dedicated to personalized, results-driven care. Founded by Ava Barwick, a Licensed Massage Therapist with over 11 years of experience, the practice blends medical knowledge with a deeply intuitive touch. Ava began her career in a medical massage clinic in Arizona, where she spent seven years honing her skills in clinical bodywork before relocating to Charlotte, NC in 2022. Since then, she has continued to offer a thoughtful blend of medical and spa modalities tailored to each client’s unique needs.

In January 2025, Ava earned her certification as a Lymphedema Therapist, expanding her expertise in lymphatic health and healing. At Rooted Bodywork & Lymphatics, every session is intentionally customized because every body is different. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing chronic pain, or simply seeking relief from everyday stress, Ava is committed to helping you uncover the root of your discomfort and support your body’s natural healing process.
